BronsonA2150 Posted Friday at 01:40 AM Share Posted Friday at 01:40 AM Just bought a 94 ch600 a couple weeks ago and it ran fine on the way home. Now when I crank it up it will run like normal for right at 30 seconds then shut down like you turned the key off. Crank it right back up and same result. Had a lot of people tell me coolant level sensor will cause this but this one appears to have been unplugged a long time ago and bypassed. What else should I look for? I was also told to try to check codes by holding cruise button down but unless I’m going it wrong I couldn’t get any lights to flash doing that Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75014-%E2%80%9894-e7-dying-30-seconds-after-startup/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted Friday at 11:14 AM Share Posted Friday at 11:14 AM Does it have an electric oil pressure sensor ? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75014-%E2%80%9894-e7-dying-30-seconds-after-startup/#findComment-566672 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it means anything though oil pressure is coming up like normal Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75014-%E2%80%9894-e7-dying-30-seconds-after-startup/#findComment-566676 Share on other sites More sharing options...
67RModel Posted Friday at 12:23 PM Share Posted Friday at 12:23 PM in 94 an R model could be fully mechanical or VMAC. I'm assuming the same goes for the CHs. Do you happen to know which type of E7 you have? That piece of info would greatly help with a diagnosis.

It’s not fully mechanical, it has an electronic governor 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75014-%E2%80%9894-e7-dying-30-seconds-after-startup/#findComment-566682 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BronsonA2150 Posted Friday at 02:28 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 02:28 PM Are the electronic malfunction and shutdown engine lights supposed to illuminate when you turn the key to run before starting? If so, mine aren’t and I’m wondering if maybe I have a power issue to the computer? 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75014-%E2%80%9894-e7-dying-30-seconds-after-startup/#findComment-566691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted Friday at 03:31 PM Share Posted Friday at 03:31 PM They should do a test cycle. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75014-%E2%80%9894-e7-dying-30-seconds-after-startup/#findComment-566693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted Friday at 03:36 PM Share Posted Friday at 03:36 PM You can remove the framework around the gauge cluster to check the bulbs. No need to pull the cluster out.
